Oscar Murphy Dorley (born 19 July 1998) is a Liberian professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder for Slavia Prague and the Liberia national team.

Dorley was born in Monrovia. He was born Murphy Dorley, but one of his coaches started calling him Oscar because his physique and playing style reminded him of Brazilian footballer Oscar. The name Oscar then became known throughout his native country and became part of his name.[3]
